Abstract
It is common practice to wait 4 - 7 days after implantation of fiducial markers in the prostate before performing a CT scan for treatment planning to allow time for the implants to stabilize within the implanted tissue. It is not uncommon for implants to move several millimeters during the first few days. The purpose of this work is to assess the stability immediately following implantation of the crumpling coil design of a novel trackable implanted fiducial (Tracer, Navotek Medical Ltd., Israel).
